Chapter 786 Guishuang King

"King Wusun, you lead 30,000 Wusun cavalry as the vanguard to defeat King Guishuang."

The expeditionary force of the Protectorate of the Western Regions marched towards the army of the Guishuang Empire, and Huo An ordered the Wusun cavalry from the Wusun Kingdom to attack the army of the Guishuang Empire.

"The Guishuang Empire has at least 300,000 troops in the Dawan Kingdom. I led 30,000 cavalry to attack the Guishuang Empire's army. Wouldn't it make me seek my own death?"

King Wusun's face turned livid upon receiving Huo An's order.

The Guishuang Empire has a large population, and there are 300,000 troops in the Dawan Kingdom. King Wusun thought that Huo An wanted him to die.

The cavalry of the Wusun Kingdom can't stand against ten.

"This is an order. If the cavalry of the Wusun Kingdom does not go, the Wusun Kingdom will be expelled."

"As ordered..."

King Wusun was reluctant in every possible way, but still had to be awed by Huo An's majesty, and chose to leave the expeditionary army and serve as the vanguard army.

In the camp of the 300,000 troops of the Guishuang Empire, King Qiu of Guishuang was sitting on the throne, looking down at the kneeling scout general: "The Imperial Guard of the Western Regions sent 30,000 cavalry to test our 300,000 troops? The king has blocked Wo Kuotai for more than a year or two, how can he be afraid of the troops of the Western Regions Protectorate! Mobilize all the soldiers and horses, and destroy this Wusun cavalry!"

The 300,000 Guishuang Empire army was mobilized immediately, and all soldiers and horses assembled.

In a valley of the Dawan Kingdom, the cavalry of the Wusun Kingdom met with the army of the Guishuang Empire. A conflict broke out between the Wusun people and the Yuezhi people. A group of cavalry from the Guishuang Empire detoured to the rear of the Wusun Kingdom cavalry, trying to cut off the Wusun Kingdom cavalry retreat.

"Ambush among us!"

"Break out!"

King Wusun drew his saber, panicked, and led the Wusun cavalry to retreat.

Teams of Guishuang Empire cavalry attacked the Wusun cavalry, arrows rained down, covering the Wusun cavalry, and thousands of Wusun cavalry were killed!

Under the protection of a group of guards, the King of Guishuang climbed up to look at the cavalry of the Wusun Kingdom, who were besieged by the 300,000 Guishuang Empire army, and were still holding on.

"The cavalry of the Wusun Kingdom are brave, but the guards of the Western Regions sent them to be the vanguard, and they just came to die. If the King of Wusun is recruited, and if he takes advantage of the situation to occupy the Dawan Kingdom, the Guishuang Empire will become an unprecedentedly powerful empire."

King Guishuang saw that the cavalry of Wusun Kingdom were fighting bravely after being besieged, so he couldn't help loving talents, and wanted to use the influence of King Wusun to conquer Wusun Kingdom.

King Wusun fought to the death and killed thousands of enemy soldiers, but was unable to break through, and was finally captured by the Guishuang Empire and brought to King Guishuang.

"The guardians of the Western Regions of the Han Empire sent you as the vanguard to attack the enemy army ten times their own strength. This is a trick to kill with a sword. The Han Empire has wiped out the leaders of many tribes. There are only a few kings of the thirty-six countries in the Western Regions. The king is still alive, it is conceivable that they let you rule the Wusun Kingdom, but the time is not yet ripe, and now, you have no value for them to use, so they want to use my hand to get rid of you."

King Guishuang ordered Wusun King, who was tied up all over the world, to untie him and lift him up himself.

King Wusun was injured, and his expression was depressed: "I have made great contributions to the protection of the Western Regions and kept the Western Regions for the Han Empire. I didn't expect them to cross the river and tear down the bridges. They want to use me to consume your troops."

"My king, Qiu Juque, is about to build a great empire with an area of ​​thousands of miles. I will serve me and defeat the Protectorate of the Western Regions. I promise you and your descendants to rule the territory of Wusun Kingdom forever."

"The cavalry of Wusun Kingdom are willing to serve the king of kings in the river world."

After King Wusun was captured, he simply surrendered to the army of the Guishuang Empire.

Huo An was on the way to the army and heard that King Wusun had surrendered. He was very annoyed. The nobles of the Dawan Kingdom who were standing on Huo An's side looked at each other and did not dare to say anything.

About 70,000 troops of the Protectorate of the Western Regions confronted the 300,000 troops of the Guishuang Empire camp in the wilderness.

On the opposite side, there are many armored cavalry of the Guishuang Empire, equipped with oriental-style armor, with sharp iron armor and spears in their hands.

Armored cavalry, no matter which civilization they are in, are elite legions.

The feudal warriors of the Kushan Empire,

There are also Punjabi warriors who succumbed to the Guishuang Empire, leading low-level infantry to form an infantry phalanx, which is mighty and mighty, mixing the styles of ancient China, ancient Greece, ancient India, and ancient Persia.

Central Asian civilizations were influenced by the East and the West, so the legions of the Guishuang Empire were also influenced by various civilizations.

"The Guishuang Empire has a population of tens of millions, with 300,000 soldiers and horses, 20,000 armed cavalry, and a large number of cavalry archers. It is not easy to win."

Ban Chao reined in his horse and looked at the boundless Guishuang Empire army opposite him.

There were 100,000 expeditionary troops in the Protectorate of the Western Regions, of which 30,000 Wusun cavalry surrendered to the Guishuang Empire after thousands of casualties, and more than 20,000 Wusun cavalry flanked the Guishuang Empire.

"Our troops are small, so King Guishuang dared to go out of the city to fight with us, and fight quickly. This is an opportunity for us, but also very dangerous. Huo Qubing, Ma Chao, you are ready to assault the army of Guishuang Empire .”

Huo An has two fierce generals who dare to charge forward. Huo Qubing's 800 Han Empire hussars are extremely rare ninth-level light cavalry.

The light cavalry is generally capped at the seventh rank, but Huo Qubing's light cavalry is the ninth rank light cavalry, which has the mobility of light cavalry and the impact power comparable to heavy cavalry.

The Tie Ying soldiers of the Qin State, the Imperial Hussars of the Han Dynasty, the Xuanjia Army of the Tang Dynasty, and the Qi Xue Army of the Mongol Empire are all elites who suppressed an era.

The hussars of the Han Empire were behind Huo Qubing. Both men and horses wore armor, bows, and two spears. In order to increase the speed of the attack, the horses were not equipped with heavy armor.

Ma Chao's Xiliang cavalry is heavy cavalry. After reorganizing the Xiliang cavalry, there are 5,000 Xiliang cavalry in formation.

Ma Chao looked at Huo Qubing who was on the side. Although Huo Qubing's military strength was not as good as his, but in foreign wars, Huo Qubing's ability to command cavalry was stronger than him.

"Can we defeat the army of the Guishuang Empire? They are a powerful empire. Once defeated, we may be captured alive by the King of Guishuang, and none of us can escape."

The nobles of the Dawan Kingdom on the side of Huo An's camp were very nervous, and the army of the Guishuang Empire was huge and daunting.

"Sometimes population isn't everything, use your mind too."

Huo An looked at the dark lineup on the opposite side. The army formation of the Guishuang Empire was indeed terrifying. It gathered princes from many tribes of the Guishuang Empire, and three of the five princes of the Yuezhi were on the opposite side.

"The Protectorate of the Western Regions dared to face a force four times their size. It is really reckless."

King Guishuang asked each of the princes to command each of the troops, otherwise he alone would not be able to provide bonuses for the 300,000 troops.

"The Protectorate of the Western Regions has always been domineering and wants to rule the entire Central Asia. This seems to be their style."

"Let our Guishuang Empire end the ambition of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, and only our Guishuang Empire can do it."

King Guishuang drew out his sword and pointed forward: "Launch an attack!"

The trumpets of the Guishuang Empire echoed on the battlefield, and nearly 100,000 Guishuang Empire infantry held square shields and pressed against the army of the Western Regions Protectorate!

The army of the Guishuang Empire is like a black cloud pressing down on the city, bringing a sense of tension and oppression.

The empires that have persisted until now have a large number of elite legions, which are not peasant troops that can be easily defeated. The imperial guards of King Guishuang have not yet entered the battlefield. Physical strength and morale, and then win or lose in one fell swoop.

"It's really a shocking army formation. It seems that the power of the Guishuang Empire has been underestimated. If you fight in the hinterland of the Guishuang Empire, the King of Guishuang will call on millions of troops to besiege us, and we will be exhausted."

Huo An's scalp tingled when he thought that the silent Guishuang Empire had a population of tens of millions, which was seven or eight times the population of the current Protectorate of the Western Regions.

In extreme cases, with the influence of King Guishuang, it is possible to call in millions of soldiers and horses, provided that it is in the northern part of the Indus River Valley, the most populous part of the Guishuang Empire.

The distribution of the population is extremely unbalanced. The civilizations in the great river basins have a large population, while the territory of the Protectorate of the Western Regions is vast, but the population density is very small.

"Gao Xianzhi led the infantry to stand in front, and Li Siye's Modao team served as the vanguard."

Huo An called the combination of Gao Xianzhi and Li Siye to meet the army of the Guishuang Empire.

The army of the Protectorate of the Western Regions has generally been equipped with god-arm bows. Tens of thousands of god-arm bows are drawn, and the soldiers are loaded with crossbows.

"The army of the Guishuang Empire has launched an attack!"

A Dawan nobleman exclaimed that the infantry of the Guishuang Empire was less than a hundred steps away from the army of the Protectorate of the Western Regions!

The rain of arrows covered the entire sky, and the heavy infantry in the front row with shields looked up into the sky, the shadow cast by the rain of arrows made people tremble.

Li Siye, the vanguard general of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, discarded his armor and was bare-chested, holding a Modao in his hand, his bronzed muscles tensed.

Behind him, the Sanqian Modao team is orderly, tall and tall, with an average height of more than 1.8 meters, and they look tall among the entire army of the Western Regions Protectorate.

Gao Xianzhi pulled out the saber at his waist and pointed forward: "Forward!"

The infantry on both sides began to charge faster, using the impact brought by the speed, trying to break down the opponent's army in one fell swoop!

"kill!"

The two phalanxes collided, and rows of infantry pressed on!

Li Siye led the Modao team to attack in one direction. With Modao in his hand, he chopped down a square shield. There was a bloodstain on the soldier of the Guishuang Empire behind the square shield. Li Siye cut his whole body into two pieces! !

The Modao team followed closely behind Li Siye, rampaging and invincible, swung their knives forward neatly, and chopped off the enemy's armor!

The Modao team passed by, and even the commander of the Guishuang Empire was overwhelmed by the Modao team, and his arm was cut off!

The Modao Squad, a special unit from the Anxi Protectorate of the Tang Dynasty, is the most powerful infantry under Huo An's command. They dare to fight hand-to-hand with any unit, even if they are facing heavy cavalry.

Li Siye's Modao Squad charged through the army of the Guishuang Empire, opening a breakthrough.

King Guishuang saw a gap cut out by the 3,000 Modao team for one hundred thousand infantry, and his face was not very good: "The imperial guards are dispatched, and they will definitely destroy the Western Regions. trustworthy."
